Born in St. Albans in 1909 Francis Skeat was a fellow of the Royal Society of Arts, the British Society of Master Glass Painters, and a member of the Art Workers Guild. He created over 400 stained glass windows for churches and cathedrals both in the UK and abroad.  Although his last securely dated stained-glass commissions date from 1981, Skeat is known to have continued designing stained glass until his death in 2000

The three windows below can all be found at St. Peter's ⓘ church, Raunds, Northamptonshire.
